Subject: bonding: fix oops when arp_interval is set to a low value
From: Nicolas de Pesloüan <nicolas.2p.debian@xxxxxxx>

When setting arp_interval parameter to a very low value, delta_in_ticks
for next arp might become 0, causing an infinite loop.

See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10680

Same problem for miimon parameter already fixed, but fix might be
enhanced, by using msecs_to_jiffies() function.
